Pablo Neruda (1904-1973) was a chilean poet and Nobel literature laureate which touched my soul with one powerful line, "can write the saddest verses tonight..."
Then I read our own Joyce E. Bowling's "Lucky" which all of you should read too, because it is no crime more abhorrent that to inflict abuse upon a child. Please, read "Lucky"
A powerful write my friend, you know the bible speaks about those who harm God's little one's...I personally think that there is a special place in hell reserved especially for them...I can't understand how any human can hurt or harm a child! Sick world! Thank you for your enouraging others to read my poem "Lucky" This was one of the hardest and harshest realities to think that a mother would strave her child! I too enjoy Pablo Neruda...I agree with the others, this is one of his strongest writes...
Blessings,
Joyce Bowling
This collection of poetry addresses the nature of time, reflections on the natural world, the difficulty of loss,
contemporary social issues and gratitude for life.
In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
A further collection of poems, many from years in the Middle East, but also the California San Francisco and Central Coast areas (Santa Cruz, Carmel, Big Sur, Berkeley, etc.).
